This deal is one major pain in the butt.

The agent who says he has Assulin as a client claims he is in Israel and awaiting a 'minor' operation.

And yet another agent has lined him up to be at Rovers today.

I don't think he has shown up...and the way this is heading it sounds like one to avoid.

typical!! :angry2:

Tim southampton,

did you watch Damned United yesterday? Brian Clough signed players on their doorstep.....without the chairmans consent! Maybe a tactic Big Sam could employ..... :-)

Just seen the film for the first time. How could anyone have knocked that? Great movie. Brilliant lines. Wonderful. Absolute joy.

Watched it earlier this year, was in stitches, it's an absolute must watch. Great banter between Clough and Revie. :lol:

As for Nugent, as many of them down the road have said, he's now at his level.

Hope he sticks to his word and no amount of money changes it. ;)

The film was only matched by the documentary that came after, I think its still showing on some I player or something.

Sometimes you really dont envy the guys who have to do a post match interview with the managers, Strachan talking about yoghurts and mobile phones ringing and SAFC blasting the Germans but neither had anything over Brian Clough, now that guy would always keep you on your toes.

£1.5m in wages alone for him!? Crazy!!

Surely if we let him go free then someone would take him off us?

Bloody hell Hughesy! Obviously not for goodness sake.... we've been trying to offload him for nothing for a season now. Obviously no one thinks he is worth 30k pw and he won't move whilst he gets that from us. Why should he? No doubt people like him and situations like these are why no one with any sense wants to own a football club nowadays.

Another Zurab / Bullen situation. We will simply not have offered him the stupid wages that Pompey contracted him too when they wre busy heaping up their own funeraly pyre.

I see Hull are having to pay Bullen to leave ffs! He's on so much that no one will touch him with a bargh pole. Celtic will take him but can't pay what he's on so as it's the only option to off load him Hull are having to pay him to go! Don't bet on that tactic not currently being employed by messrs Nugent and Kishanishvilli. As I've said frequently the lunatics are running the asylum.

Couldn't have put it better, Nicko, I love this film. Reading an abridged version of Cloughie's book 'Walking on Water - My Life' - should be required reading for all involved in the game. Must get a copy of the full story.

Nugent? Didn't want him anyway, got no time for him at all. Zurab? Well, he's not the first, I don't blame him. He's a decent bloke.

Shame they played fast and loose with the truth.

The film was an adaption of the book, which wasn't meant to be exactly true but more of a dramatisation of his days at Leeds and how he got there. Really good book and film.

No we were offering him out at around £1m - we asked Reading for something like £750k fee...we should let him go for free & im sure clubs would show more interest.

Also the LT says Assulin on trial is VERY unlikely to happen!! Knew it was too good to be true! :angry2:

No but last season we were asking for a fee. For players like him we need to make it clear & use the media so clubs are aware he is completely free of any fee.
